According to David Emerson "ice in" usually occurs the 3rd week of January, that isn't happening this year.
Paugus Bay is back to ice this morning but lost a lot of it yesterday. With temps above normal through the weekend and a bit of rain and wind in the forecast, I would guess Paugus will be wet come Monday. Favorable ice temps wont return until mid-week. The rest of the lake is pretty much open water already.
Since last spring's "ice out" was the earliest on record and this years "ice in" is going to be later than normal, are we looking at a record number of days of "ice out"??
It will be well over 300 days of "ice out" before we are declared "ice in".
67 days till spring!
